Are we that bad to work for that we could not hire someone proven?
I will be highly disappointed if we spin our wheels for he next year of two.
We need to make improvements on both sides of the ball. Staying the same or regressing is a big concern of mine. Give me some visible and measurable improvement please. That is all I ask.

It is my opinion that one of the things that made it tough to get other more proven candidates for any of our openings was/is the uncertainty regarding Jay Gruden's future. He is coming into year 4, and since Snyder has owned the team we have never had a HC longer than 4 seasons. Probably most did not want to sign on, only to get canned after one year if this season doesn't go well. And i know some people are saying, well there is a chance that the new HC after Gruden could choose to keep the assistants, but that is only a chance and not usually what happens...
